खाना खाते समय बात क्यों नहीं करनी चाहिए? ft.

The epiglottis is a leaf-shaped flap of cartilage located behind the tongue, at the top of the larynx (voice box). Its main function is to seal off the windpipe during eating, so that food is not accidentally inhaled. When you swallow, the epiglottis folds down to cover the larynx, directing food and liquid into the esophagus instead. This prevents choking and ensures that the food goes into the stomach rather than the lungs.
